^ Also, Pullman’s character in ID4 is ex-military (Navy carrier-pilot), and has Gen. Robert Loggia as his gruff mentor/USMC commandant. So more than likely, yup.

Please include Asians and Latinos in the diversity project. So rare to see an Asian or Latino face.

Independence Day is an awesome movie, and I agree he was a Republican. And very likeable.

I do not like to go to movies alone, and I assume you always do Sonny... I have more fun when I can share the good and bad with someone, and the people that used to go with me, have suddenly become uninterested in going. Even to the local drive in where we used to go all the time. So, I miss going.

I most likely will see all these when they are featured selections in my movie clubs or are streamed on a streaming service I subscribe to.

I am looking forward to the Minions one, along with Top Gun and I already bought Thor, but, haven't seen it yet. I also have Dr Strange...

thanks Sonny... I've been wondering if theaters can survive streaming. It will be very tough. If I owned theater chains, I'd have sold them by now. Even the restaurant theaters are having trouble surviving. We're all buying bigger and bigger Big Screens, and installing luxury seating to recreate the theater experience at home, right in our living rooms. And young people just watch their phones. IMAX maybe? We can't do that at home yet...

I wish we got the kind of rational, compassionate, nice presidents irl that we get in movies. Or maybe we could have a My Fellow Americans buddy presidency.
